What's Inside?

In some areas of design it's reasonable to expect SolidWorks to calculate a volume other than that of your model. This of course poses the following challenge: how does SolidWorks "know" what to include in the volume.

Todays tutorial video is a 3 minute look at how to quickly accomplish this. In the video you can watch here on our youtube channel, I've used the flexibility of a multibody part design to the leverage the combine command. This multibody functionality inside of SolidWorks makes it a fast and accurate process.

In other news, don't forget our SolidWorks 2011 rollout events are right around the corner. You can register for those on the events page of our website here.
